  1. What's the big deal about cavitron buzz baits everyone on here drools over them
  2. Got a Curado bantam from a friend and don't know how old it is. it is in great condition inside and out. Does anyone know what years the bantam was made
  3. Somehow the handle on my revo s got bent. Makes it very rough to reel in. Has this happened to any one before and is there an easy way to fix it.
  4. I've never held a BPS rod I'll have to check them out.
  5. Try loosening the brakes a little that might be making it hard to cast long distances.
  6. Im looking for a reasonably priced rod. What is the best Crankin rod for the money

    Would a small chunk work as a trailer

    I have a few finesse jigs in various colors but don't know how to use them. Do you use a trailer and if so what kind. Do you just use it like a shaky head?

    Im new to fly fishing and wondering what y'all think are the best flys for small bass and bream
  10. I got 5 free 5/0 hooks in the mail yesterday. I did the quiz and the other thing but only got one package so far

    Just read a few posts about using snaps to reduce bait swap time. What are the pros and cons of using them and what baits can you use them on. Do they get stuck in cover when using a jig
  12. If you find a fish you want to spend alot of time on dangle your plastics in front of it's face until it gets mad enough at it to bite.
  13. Try out some shallow diving bandit crankbaits they work great in small ponds.
  14. Defiantly the bandits swim great and catch a ton of fish
  15. Try trading out the hooks in the kit for unweighted hooks. The wire and everything else is heavy enough to stay down in the water. I might be wrong but that should have nothing to do with the action of the swimbaits.

    Just watched a few videos on walking a frog makes me want to use one. It has been 80+ degrees for a week is it to early to bring out the fro?. Is braid absolutely neccesary or would floro work?
  17. I fish alot of ponds myself. If the bass are too small they might not hit those big topwaters try to use a little rooster tail or a small shaky head. If the bass are bigger try a trick worm or just something that only a bass would bite.
  18. Will this work for largemouth and spots?
  19. Fished a few times in the last week and have only gotten a few of bedded bass to even look at anything i throw at them. Gotten a few mad enough to bite but others wont even notice my bait. I've been throwing chigger craws onto beds. What do you do or use to get these fish to bite?
  20. I put grease underneath those parts into the gears that rotate when you reel
  21. Part # 64 is slightly sticking up. J francho suggested that I applied to much grease. I put alot into the reel underneath parts 47-51. Could that be the problem and if so is there an easy way to remove that grease or will I need to take the whole thing apart and clean the parts individually.
  22. I made sure everything was put back correctly an it was. Tried it and found a better way to describe the problem. The reel does fine on loose line with no tension, but once there is tension the handle still turns, but not very smooth, and the spool is not activated. Thanks for the help
  23. I spooled on 12 lb suffix elite floro. I took the reel handle completely off and back on checking for loose parts , requested by Abu Garcia FAQ. Seemed to fix it for a min but when I tried testing the drag line was coming of. I had the drag all the way up. Also the spool control still just allows the lightest of lures fall right to the ground when I test it. Thanks

    I got a strike king heavy cover swim jig the other day. I'm just wondering whether I should put a trailer on It and if so what kind. Also wondering techniques that work for y'all in all kinds of conditions and cover.
